playwright

79 / 100 · Review before installing

Check before installing. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

By melodic-software/claude-code-plugins (GitHub) · coding · 30 stars · scanned at commit 677e798

Live browser automation through Microsoft's @playwright/cli, writing snapshots, screenshots, traces and video to disk so only paths enter context. Use when a task needs live browser testing against a running app: an 'E2E test' or 'UI smoke test' of a flow, 'snapshot the page', a screenshot or video as evidence, console errors or network traffic, a mocked response, or saving, checking or inspecting a playwright-cli login or auth state file. Maintainers: `/playwright:playwright update`.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'playwright' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'playwright' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named playwright already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/melodic-software/claude-code-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '677e7988f432dacb5e2d4df2b124f96da8e8f9f3' -- 'plugins/playwright/skills/playwright' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/playwright/skills/playwright' ~/.agents/skills/'playwright' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'playwright' ~/.claude/skills/'playwright' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
